Errors of Numerical Calculation of the Irradiance Integral for Solar Paraboloid Concentrators

摘要

The errors of the main numerical calculation methods to solve the irradiance integral for solar paraboloid concentrators (SPC) is considered. It is shown that the simple summation method is most efficient. The minimal partition numbers of the SPC surface depending on the permissible inaccuracy of the irradiance integral solution are determined.
